Ok, it seems the old configurations thread got a bit messy over time and I thought it would be a nice idea to have something a bit more organized this time. Especially to make it easier for users that just want to browse for a nice config and apply it.

So the idea would be that you upload your configs in the following pattern here:

Make a small post about your config with a small screenshot and use a second post right underneath to upload your config.

Please don't upload any screenshots without configs here, but use the new foobar gallery thread instead.

Also please post your questions and comments about any formatting somewhere else, maybe with a link to the corresponding formatting in case there is one.

Irrelevant posts may be removed from this thread by moderation at any time.

I'll post two quick example posts underneath to show I would think this thread could look like in the future.

Thanks for taking all this into consideration and for everyones participation in the last thread.

Album formatting string supporting user definable custom information. I specifically wrote this for fast rendering speed. This is why I left out most user configurations and tag guessing code. It is heavily dependend on properly tagged files.

Custominfo

Simply replace the default tags in the config part of the globals with the ones you like to be displayed instead. Use the format %tag% for this. The default is : disc, label, composer, performer and date.

Various artist guessing

Will recognize albums as beeing from various artists in case there is an album artist tag present and override the album information with album artist information in this case. Simpy set album artist to whatever you want to be displayed for various artist albums in your va files. It will append te artist (track artist) to the title then.

Single guessing

Will display files as singles in case they either contain a singletrack tag, the first three characters of the playlistname are -s- or the directoryname in wich they reside is called "=singles=".

Well, I spent some time on this. I am not too disappointed since I started out not knowing jack when it came to configuring this thing. I did cheat as I used Leshita's config for most of it, I just changed a lot of the colors. What I did do differently is I modded the VU meter so that it appeared to be paneled, it isn't, I just removed the caption. And the one thing that I really don't like about it is that no matter what other windows are in focus, the VU meter is always on top, I am trying to fix that.

The primary purpose of this config is to demonstrate a working implementation of "hotness". This means that it's not (currently) designed for public consumption. Truth is it's not even up to my own standards yet. Some of its quirks are:

* "Hotness" indicator: A circle on the far right will indicate a track's hotness in shades of orange.* "Mix" mode: any playlist with the word "mix" in the title will be displayed differently (no album/tracknumber info)* "Tag editor" mode: any playlist with the words "tag editor" in the title will be displayed differently (with lots of raw tag columns)* Bitrate indicator: a small column on the left will turn yellow if a track's bitrate is below 160kbps, and fade down to red as it approaches 56kbps.* Audioscrobbler check: A check will appear next to a track once it is submitted to Audioscrobbler.* %added% indicator: Tracks with no %added% tag will be yellow.* Aquarius mode: any playlist with the word "aquarius" in the title will be displayed differently (used when listening to samples from aquariusrecords.org)

My new one! Same configuration like above (Post #7), but with "Playlist Tree" version 1.4.17 and perfect strings from "marcomk", which you can find here!Also new "Track-Info" version made by "gob" from here. (Post #259)Thanks to both of them! For this config you will also need "Arial Unicode MS"-Font. (Download above Post #7)

With spectrum and Albumview

Without spectrum und Singleview

By this fcs-file you can change between this theme and the theme above! (Post #7)

It shows as single if at least one of following is met :1) file has SINGLE or SINGLETRACK tag2) file doesn't have ALBUM tag3) file doesn't have TRACKNUMBER tag4) file has TRACKNUMBER tag but the number is zero5) file has ALBUM but not TRACKNUMBER tag6) file has TRACKNUMBER but not ALBUM tag

It also shows as Various Artists if file has VARIOUS or ALBUM ARTIST tag.

Someone requested my .fcs config so here it is. Unfortunately I don't have anywhere else that this can be uploaded to without trouble. A lot of it is copy and pasted from other configs, but I have done quite a bit of tweaking to suit my needs.
